Grandpa Garry

Many people have recently asked about my dad and his battle with the insidious disease we call cancer. He continues to fight the pain and fatigue that the chemo and its side-effects bring to his daily life. Currently he is still recovering from a blood clot in his leg. The pain is overwhelming at times and has been on-going for almost three weeks. Breathing continues to be difficult for him, especially on windy and humid days. He still gains great joy from his friends who come to visit frequently. He's always been very social and that has not lessened, although he gets tired even from socializing. His spirits seem to be as good as can be expected at this point in the process.

Prayers are appreciated.
